Mando Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 (edited) My own very first owed car was a 1972 VW Beetle 1302s in bottle green, man I loved my old bug! 1600cc with dual choke webber carbs, drank petrol like water but was quick and noisy Sadly went to the scrapheap in the sky, regretted it ever since, the 1302s models are quite rare.
